    I know what capitalism is. But this company valuation business is also corrupt. Musk really really wants to be the richest man on Earth so he games it for all its worth. I bet a neutral and transparent re-valuation would reveal that he’s NOT a trillionaire by a long shot.

    edit: I bet a neutral and transparent re-valuation of all his businesses would bring the whole house of cards tumbling down.

      It’s not corruption. It’s capitalism functioning as intended. It’s internal contradictions are not corruption. They are features the capitalist class exploits; for as long as the rest of us allow.
